G. Evans on Knowledge - Dictionary of Arguments
Frank I 547 Knowledge/Evans: it is not sufficient that a true belief is causally dependent on the facts that make it true. - ((s) Additional identification is needed.) Evans: remembering is therefore no way to have knowledge of a subject such that the question of the identity of that object remains open. Therefore there is no gap between the knowledge that someone saw a burning tree and the knowledge that it was the person herself who saw it. >Self-identification, >Self-knowledge.
